Fencing FIE World Cup 2023 - 2024

and now, good luck to our coaches!

 

looking at this year's results, they just can't leave Rizzi out of the Olympic squad 

 

Santuccio and Navarria are already untouchable (and world medallists last year)...

 

so, it should be down to Isola and Fiamingo...one most valuable as a reserve for the team event, the other one*...well, twice world champion, Olympic silver medallists, the most experienced individual specialist of the team, but an illusive, possible disaster if used in the team's competition (especially as a closer, which is normally her position)

 

*and also super-Greg Paltrinieri's girlfriend, which might play a role also for Greg's psych in Paris   

 

I fear lots of arguing and social media shit incoming...

 key matchup instead might be already the clash vs  in the round of #16 (then, in case, the quarterfinal vs  or )

 Neisser Loyola is going to fence the gold medal match vs  Romain Cannone in Tbilisi (men's Epee) and therefore he gets enough points to overtake all of his opponents (especially  Jiri Beran) and earn one of the two Olympic Individual spots available for the European players

 

meanwhile, in Budapest (men's sabre) the quarterfinals are:

 

 Luca Curatoli vs  Matyas Szabo

 Oh sanguk vs  Alì Pakdaman

 Andras Szatmari vs  Sebastien Patrice

 Luigi Samele vs  Enver Yildirim
